Gunny and I were saddened to hear of Marylou's illness and passing. Our thoughts are with our extended family during this very difficult time. Love, Ellen and James (Gunny) Arntz

Marylou bought Ruby to school regularly to Ms. Howards class at St. Matthews and was a big part of the class.  She loved talking of her grandkids and was such a beautiful spirit.  May she rest in peace.  Love, Chloe Vaughn and her parents.

I knew Marylou through St. James Episcopal Church in old Bowie. I got to know her much better when we served together on the Search Committee that called St. James's first Rector. She was a great lady who stood up for her beliefs. She will be greatly missed.

Karen, I'm so sorry for your loss and am thinking of you during this difficult time. What a lovely picture of your mom. You look just like her. Hugs to you and your family.

I only knew Marylou as "Ruby's Grandma".  She would bring Ruby to Pre-K school and pick her up every day.  I so enjoyed getting to know Marylou, she supported and helped me in every way.  She was an inspiration to me and I will always treasure her words of wisdom.  Dearest family, my heartfelt sympathy and prayers are with you.

I was so glad to have known your mom.  She was a deeply spiritual woman and is someone who I treasured that I got to know during my time at St. James.  Rev. Anne-Marie Jeffery

Marylou Frank was always known as "Marylou" at St. James Episcopal Church in Bowie and I was the "other Mary Lou," which is how it should be since she was there first.

Our St. James church family both young and old were always very special to us.  We especially enjoyed watching Izzy, Raymond and Stella as they attended church with grandma.  They drew pictures, colored in books, played with stuffed animals, dolls and automobiles and participated in the service by taking the collection, responding to questions during the discussion period and holding the sacraments way above their little heads for blessing by Caroline and Ann-Marie during the Eucharistic.

We will keep your family in our prayers during this part of life's journey.

God bless,

Marylou and I got to know each other much better when we became the Granny
Nannies around the same time. She had such a quick wit that always raised  my spirits. My sympathy goes out to all of the children, grand children, and great grand child. May God's peace comfort all of you.

Marylou was a very special lady. I attended St.James and we were both on the altar guild. I have many wonderful memories of her. We attended early church together many Sundays and I remember sweet Little Izzy being there with us. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless You Marylou!

So sorry to hear about your loss, Vic, Jennifer and Karen. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

We enjoyed knowing Marylou so much when we were in St James together. She had a great sense if humor and it was a joy to watch her with her young grandchildren.

We send our love to the family.   Laura Brown and Fawn Pettigrew
